Less than two months after introducing the Redmi Note 3 smartphone in China, Xiaomi is unveiling a new version of the phone. Like the original, the new Redmi Note 3 features a 5.5 inch, 1920 x 1080 pixel display and a 4,000 mAh battery.

The handwriting is on the wall that, in a year or two, most people will be buying unlocked phones that are $100-$200 new.

The Korean companies are not selling discounted models in the US. The only time I see them selling for close to $200 is when they are being liquidated. I don’t think I am ready for a Xiaomi, Blu or Huawei phone yet… when I can get a new nexus 6 for $250. Phones are still status-symbols, I am thinking that most people will still pay extra for their bling.

You only proved his point. He said phones that are 100-200 new and you brought up Nexus 6 at 250 currently. That’s basically what he meant. People are going to start going for phones that are just cheap new with no contract. And more of the industry will probably start embracing that soon especially in the US market with contracts going away. Whether they’re a new release phone or last year’s flagship, I think people will just go with what works for their budget.

I was just talking about myself. Everyone else that I know gets a $400+ phone when they upgrade their old one. I don’t know anyone else who buys an unlocked liquidation phone. I believe the parent poster was talking about “most people”. The only people that I know who have a Chinese phone are Lenovo/Moto users (and they bought an existing USA brand).

Xiaomi’s greatest missed opportunity was not buying the Moto brand. Lenovo bought it, just like Thinkpad from IBM, and American consumers accept it as an existing brand. Xiaomi could be selling this phone in the US right now, branded as “Moto Lite” or something like that if it had bought the Moto brand. Just a thought.

Not as long as Xiaomi has the crappy MiUI overlay. It may be accepted in China, but it is generally hated elsewhere.

It’s also worth noting that the snapdragon 650 has 2 arm a72 cores and 4 a53 cores. This actually makes it better than the snapdragon 808 used in the nexus 5x

awesome phone. wish they’d release a us version with google play installed. but I also wish they’d move the speaker to the bottom instead of the back of the phone. the front would be even better…
